Thermodynamics of weak interactions: Excess enthalpies of some binary bromoform mixtures

Excess enthalpies of bromoform + toluene, +o-xylene +m-xylene and +p-xylene have been determined at 308.15 K. These compounds have been examined for Barker's theory in order to understand the magnitude and nature of various interactions between the components of these mixtures. It has been concluded that the H-atom and one bromine atom of bromoform interact with the π cloud of the aromatic ring. These conclusions have been supplemented by n.m.r. studies. An approximate distance of the bromoform proton from the plane of the aromatic ring has also been calculated and examined in the light of the proposed geometry of the molecular complexes. Equilibrium constants for the complexations reaction have also been determined.     

Thermodynamic studies of some binary mixtures containing a self-associated component. II. Excess volumes of some mixtures of tetrahydrofuran with alcohols

Excess volumes of mixing, V^E, for binary mixtures of tetrahydrofuran (THF) with methanol, ethanol, n-butanol, tert-butanol, 2-bromoethanol and ethylene glycol have been determined from the experimental density measurements at 298.15 K over the entire composition range. The V^E data follow the order: ethylene glycol < 2-bromoethanol < methanol < ethanol < n-butanol < tert-butanol. The results have been explained in terms of self-association and the hydrogen bond-donating abilities of alcohols.     

Thermodynamics of molecular interactions in binary mixtures of non-electrolytes. Molar excess volumes

Molar excess volumes, V^E, for pyridine (A) + α-picoline (B), + β-picoline (B) and + γ-picoline (B) and benzene (A) + toluene (B), + o-xylene (B) and + p-xylene (B) and carbon tetrachloride (A) + n-heptane (B) have been measured dilatometrically as a function of temperature and composition and have been utilized to study B—B and B—B—B interactions in the presence of A via the Mayer—McMillan approach. A model has also been presented to account for these B—B and B—B—B interactions. The V^E data at 308.15 K have also been analysed in terms of the “graph theoretical” approach which describes the V^E data well for all these mixtures at 308.15 K. The “graph theoretical” approach has further been extended to successfully evaluate V^E data for a mixture at any temperature, T₂, when the V^E data at T₁ are known.     

Excess heat capacities and excess volumes of binary liquid mixtures of chloroform with cyclic ethers at 298.15 K

Molar excess heat capacities at constant pressure, C^E_p, of binary liquid mixtures chloroform + oxolane, chloroform + 1,3-dioxolane, chloroform + oxane, and chloroform + 1,4-dioxane have been determined at 298.15 K from measurements of volumetric heat capacities in a Picker flow microcalorimeter. A precision of ±0.04 J K^?1 mole^? was achieved by using the stepwise procedure. Experimental molar excess heat capacities are compared with values derived from H^E results at different temperatures. Excess molar volumes, V^E, for the same systems at 298.15 K have been determined by measuring the density of the pure liquids and solutions with a high-precision digital flow densimeter.     

Thermodynamics of weak interactions: excess enthalpies and excess Gibbs free energies of mixing

Excess enthalpies of chloroform + n-hexane, bromoform + n-hexane, bromoform + pyridine and bromoform + benzene and excess Gibbs free energies of mixing for bromoform + pyridine, chloroform + pyridine, bromoform + n-hexane, chloroform + n-hexane and bromoform + benzene have been determined at 308.15 K and the same factors have been examined for Barker's theory to understand the magnitude and nature of various interactions between the components of these mixtures.     

Excess volumes,enthalpies, and Gibbs free energies for mixtures of benzene + p-xylene

Excess thermodynamic properties of benzene + p-xylene have been obtained at 288.15, 298.15, and 313.15 K. V^E was obtained with a Sodev vibrating-tube densimeter, H^E with a Picker flow microcalorimeter, and G^E was calculated from solid + liquid phase equilibria measurements. Measurements were also made of the heat capacity of liquid p-xylene as a function of temperature using the heat-capacity unit of the Picker flow microcalorimeter.     

The electrical conductance of some molten car☐ylate mixtures

Data are presented for the electrical conductivities in the melt for lead(II) octadecanoate/lead(II) decanoate, lead(II) hexadecanoate/lead(II) decanoate, lead(II) hexadecanoate/zinc hexadecanoate and lead(II) hexadecanoate/cadmium hexadecanoate mixtures over their complete composition ranges. The electrical conductivities are measured as a function of temperature from just above the melting point to just below the decomposition point of the mixtures. The Arrhenius plots for the mixtures are linear in all cases and the activation energies are determined. While the activation energies for lead(II) octadecanoate/lead(II) decanoate and lead(II) hexadecanoate/lead(II) decanoate mixtures are mole fraction independent over the concentration range studied, rendering support to previous models advanced by other workers that the major charge carrier is the free metal cation, the other systems show no such simple behaviour. In these systems there are indications of deviations from ideal behaviour, suggesting that entropy and enthalpy of mixing might be important.     

The thermodynamic properties of binary mixtures containing carbon disulphide I. Phase diagrams and excess volumes

Phase diagrams and excess volumes at 298.15 K have been measured for the four binary mixtures carbon disulphide+cyclohexane, +n-hexane, +1,5-hexadiene, and +1,5-hexadiyne. The results are discussed qualitatively in the light of recent theoretical calculations of the structure and thermodynamic properties of mixtures containing anisotropic molecules.     

Excess heat capacities of binary mixtures of carbon tetrachloride with n-alkanes at 298.15 K

A Picker flow microcalorimeter was used to determine molar excess heat capacities C_P^E at 298.15 K for mixtures of carbon tetrachloride + n-heptane, n-nonane, and n-decane. The excess heat capacities are negative in all cases. The absolute value |C_P^E| increases with increasing chain length of the alkane. A formal interchange parameter, c_P12, is calculated and its dependence on n-alkane chain length is discussed briefly in terms of molecular orientations.     

Heats of mixing of 2,2-dimethoxypropane and diethoxymethane with some 1-alkenes

The excess enthalpies of 2,2-dimethoxypropane + 1-hexene, + 1-heptene and + 1-octene, and of diethoxymethane + 1-hexene + 1-octene have been measured at 298.15 K. The values of H^E for all the systems are positive and increase with increasing chain length of the alkene. The results are analysed in term of the quasi-lattice theory of mixtures using the zeroth approximation.     

Monolayer properties of fatty acids : III. Thermodynamics of mixing

The thermodynamic properties of mixed fatty acids have been studied in the region of the surface vapor pressure. Using myristic acid as a common component various saturated and unsaturated fatty acid mixtures have been compared with regard to their tendency to be miscible or immiscible. Deviations from expected ideal behavior have allowed estimation of activity coefficients. Measurement of surface heats of vaporization has led to the determination of solubility parameters for each fatty acid. Applying regular solution theory or using activity coefficients allows independent estimation of , the partial molar enthalpy of mixing, and the two approaches are in good agreement. Therefore, it is possible to predict mixing tendencies for any combination of fatty acids used in this study.     

Thermodynamics of complex formation in ternary liquid mixtures containing acetonitrile

Vapor—liquid and liquid—liquid equilibria and excess enthalpies for ternary mixtures formed from acetonitrile, benzene, n-heptane, toluene, and carbon tetrachloride are successfully correlated with a modified version of the associated solution theory proposed by Lorimer and Jones in 1977, which assumes two types of self-association for acetonitrile and binary complexes between acetonitrile and unsaturated hydrocarbons and does not include any ternary parameters.     

Thermodynamics of associated mixtures of the Mecke—Kempter type

A chain-forming associated solution theory based on the UNIQUAC equation is presented for alcohol-unassociated active component liquid mixtures of the Mecke—Kempter type. The capability of the theory in reproducing the excess Gibbs free energy and excess enthalpy data for many binary mixtures is successfully shown. Ternary extension of the theory is presented in the calculations of vapor—liquid and liquid—liquid equilibria and excess enthalpy data from binary data.     

Topological aspects of the thermodynamics of binary mixtures of non-electrolytes

An approach based on the “graph” theory has been evolved to predict molar excess enthalpies, H^E, and molar excess volumes, V^E, for a number of binary mixtures of non-electrolytes. The calculated H^E and V^E values compare reasonably well with their corresponding experimental values. The limitations of this approach have also been discussed.     

Analytical applications of liquid-liquid phase equilibria: analysis of binary mixtures of chemically similar components

A new, simple and rapid method based on the principle of liquid-liquid phase equilibria has been developed for the analysis of binary mixtures of chemically similar organic compounds. The method does not require elaborate instrumentation and can be used to analyse mixtures of members of homologous series. The application of the method has been illustrated by analysing binary mixtures of n-hexane and n-octane; the maximum uncertainty in this analysis is ~2%.     

The enthalpimetric determination of mixtures of sulphur-containing anions

Using the concept of the additivity of partial molar heat pulses, a series of mixtures containing all or some of the following anions (S^2?, SO^2?₄, SO^2?₃, S₂O^2?₃) and S have been determined by the use of selected but non-selective reactions. The accuracy at the mM level is within 1.5%.     

Determination of hexafluoropropan-2,2-diol in its binary mixtures with water

A visual titration method for the determination of hexafluoropropan-2,2-diol (HFPD) in HFPD-water mixtures is suggested. The procedure involves the titration of the weakly acidic HFPD with sodium methoxide, using dimethylformamide or ethanol as solvent and thymol blue as indicator. The results are in good agreement with the ones obtained by potentiometric titration in water.
